Eating Disorder Support & Resources – NEDA – Alabama
About This Group
CHADD Alabama also connects families with ADHD resources, but for adults seeking peer support specifically, the Attention Deficit Disorder Association (ADDA) offers virtual support groups accessible to Alabama residents. Meanwhile, the National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA) provides resources and support for Alabamians affected by eating disorders — an important gap in Alabama’s in-person support group landscape.
What to Expect
NEDA’s online screening tool helps individuals identify whether they may be struggling with an eating disorder and connects them with treatment providers in Alabama. NEDA also operates a helpline for information, support, and referrals. While Alabama lacks dedicated in-person eating disorder support groups, NEDA’s virtual resources and provider directory ensure that Alabamians can access the help they need.
About NEDA
The National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA) is the largest nonprofit dedicated to supporting individuals and families affected by eating disorders. NEDA provides education, referrals, and a helpline for anyone seeking eating disorder support.
